New Zealand Completed Requests / Elizabeth Ann Jackson
« on: Friday 24 February 17 20:36 GMT (UK)  »
I'm trying to locate information on my Great-Great-Grandmother, Elizabeth Ann Jackson.  She married my Great-Great-Grandfather (Thomas Thornhill Neagle) in 1862, in Napier.  She claimed to be "of age" and born in New Zealand, which would give her year of birth as 1841.  However, in her death record, she claimed to be 19 at the time of her marriage.

She died in 1936 in Napier.  We believe her father was William Jackson, who is described as a "mariner".  We believe she had a sister Caroline and that her mother was Margaret Ann Jackson (nee Hunt).  We have information regarding baptism records from Auckland around 1843 for Caroline and Elizabeth Jackson.

We haven't been able to locate any information to confirm her date or place of birth, or any additional details regarding her parents.

Cork / Cpl Thomas Thornhill Neagle
« on: Friday 24 February 17 20:24 GMT (UK)  »
I'm trying to locate information on my Great-Great-Grandfather (Thomas Thornhill Neagle).  Family history tells me that he was born in County Cork and arrived in New Zealand around 1858 with the Imperial Foot Regiment, enlistment number 2012.  He was discharged in Napier, New Zealand in 1859 and married Elizabeth Ann Jackson in 1862.

I have been unable to locate any information to verify his service details and am interested in locating this, or any details on his parents or other family members.
